Welcome to what drives you. I'm Kevin Miller. I spent a lifetime performing and producing and doing.

Now I'm seeking how to be, how to find peace and fulfillment in my full potential as a human.

So I investigate, contemplate, and educate on human potential

and I share it here.

I don't want mere happiness.

I want to find true joy, peace, and fulfillment in every day. In this episode, 10,000 hours doesn't create

mastery and how to do it in less time. In the last episode I talked with neuroscientist Alexis Fernandez

Prexa author of the new audiobook How to Chase Change 30 Days to Master Your

mindset and we hit on the concept made popular

by Malcolm Gladwell in his book Outliers

of how the world's masters generally put in 10,000 hours.

Now I really appreciate Malcolm and the concept and Alexis also brought up a point I not only agree with though I've experienced.

Simply putting that the hours alone does not a master make, it's the kind of hours that matter. And the ones that Malcolm talk about, they put in relevant hours. But if you put in the right ones, you can put in even less and gain that mastery.

You don't always have to do 10,000 hours.

So I have a couple of personal stories and then let's take a look at some Hollywood actors

to help make a point here.
